Do you have any videos of these in action? lol
Nuno's Lego "Beyblades" (Updated 12/06/2009)
How come in the video you shot one first then the next one a few seconds later. I really think that'll effect the outcome alot. e.e
Woah when they spin they actually look like plastics lol.

Yes it does.
I have 4 Lauchers, 2 of them broken, but the other one (which is the hms lego laucher) is far inferior to my new plastic one. That's why it took some time for me to launch again.

Yeah kind of. lol
UPDATE SEPTEMBER 16th
Problems with System 3 require a change to System 4
System 3 lego beys come apart when in moderate to heavy contact with the opponent ( moderate and strong attacks make them come apart)
This requires a design change. However I do want them to stay similar in terms of parts and looks. The problem is: I have no idea how to improve it.
Here is a System 3 project I did a few months ago, just so you can see the parts and how it works:

Any ideas and designs are welcome!
In fact if your system works really well I might do a contest and give away a FREE Lego bey and launcher to the winner!
Woah that looks epic. o.o

what the hell is that thing
performance matters more than cheap design

I know. I just did it because I wanted to do something different.
All my other AR's and other parts are almost circular with small contact points.
Believe me, I put a lot of effort into doing things that actually work well.
Sometimes you just have to get a bit out of that same old routine you know?
Besides, this is probably the only crazy design I'll ever do, so don't start with hateful comments...
now ill remember to not mess with the legos
thats so cool how long did it take you to figure out to make a launcher out of legos
do you make rip cords too

Looks better spinning than it does just sitting there, but impressive nonetheless.

The new AR attaches to the core and the you turn it right for left spin or left for right spin.
The new H offers way more stability and now the bey doesn't come apart anymore.
New video to come in a very near future.
whoa thats sick as
Wow, I'm loving the AR design.
These really would look a lot nicer if you went over them with a fine grain sand paper after wards (just to clean up all the rough edges).
Still pretty impressive though!
